Bun is a new JavaScript runtime built from scratch to serve the modern JavaScript ecosystem. It has three major design goals:
Speed. Bun starts fast and runs fast. It extends JavaScriptCore, the performance-minded JS engine built for Safari. As computing moves to the edge, this is critical.
Elegant APIs. Bun provides a minimal set of highly-optimimized APIs for performing common tasks, like starting an HTTP server and writing files.
Cohesive DX. Bun is a complete toolkit for building JavaScript apps, including a package manager, test runner, and bundler.
Bun is designed as a drop-in replacement for Node.js. It natively implements hundreds of Node.js and Web APIs, including fs, path, Buffer and more.
The goal of Bun is to run most of the world's server-side JavaScript and provide tools to improve performance, reduce complexity, and multiply developer productivity.

I wanted neither, so I built render-useful-mcp: an MCP server for Render where every API tool is generated from Render's own OpenAPI document. All 207 endpoints, no curation. - Source: dev.to / 14 days ago
Render offers a free web service tier for Node applications, with 512 MB of memory and 0.1 CPU, that spins down after 15 minutes of inactivity and cold-starts on the next request. Deploys are Git-driven, native runtimes handle most Node versions without a Dockerfile, one-click rollback works on all tiers, and preview environments are available with their own resource billing. - Source: dev.to / 29 days ago
Render is the closest structural match to Heroku on this list. It's built around web services, background workers, static sites, cron jobs, and managed Postgres and Redis, which maps almost one-to-one onto a Procfile plus Heroku add-ons. Buildpack-style auto-detection handles most language runtimes without a Dockerfile, and preview environments and one-click rollback exist out of the box. - Source: dev.to / 30 days ago
The other limitation is compute. Vercel Functions can handle APIs, server-rendered routes, streaming, and other request-driven tasks, and the current function limits are far more generous. But if your application requires a continuously running background process or custom Docker containers, Vercel isn't the right fit. There are platforms like Render or Northflank that are built for that kind of workload. Vercel... - Source: dev.to / 30 days ago
A host: A host is really just a computer that stays powered on and connected to the internet with a public address of its own. When a visitor types in the app's address, their browser sends a request across the internet to that machine, the machine runs the code, and it sends the finished page back. A laptop was quietly doing both jobs during the build, the server and the only visitor allowed in; a host is that... - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago
The Node.js ecosystem has powered bots for a decade via discord.js. However, the Bun runtime has completely changed the game. Bun acts as an all-in-one JavaScript toolkit that starts up significantly faster and utilizes memory far more efficiently than standard Node.js. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago
The binary had a #!/usr/bin/env bun shebang and imported bun:sqlite. I had developed the whole thing under Bun, so on my machine it was perfect. On a normal machine with only Node installed, there is no bun to run the shebang, the entry was a .ts file Node would not execute, and even if it got that far, bun:sqlite is a built-in that only exists inside Bun. Three separate ways to fail before any of my code ran.... - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago
The CLI is a thin Bun wrapper; the engine is the Rust binary it shells out to. Pipe-friendly by design โ transcript on stdout, errors on stderr. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago
The numbers are striking. According to benchmarks published on bun.sh, Bun handles 59,026 Express.js "hello world" HTTP requests per second on Linux x64, compared to 25,335 for Deno and 19,039 for Node.js. For WebSocket throughput, Bun clocks 2,536,227 messages per second against Deno's 1,320,525 and Node's 435,099. Bun also bundles 10,000 React components in 269ms. Rolldown completes the same job in 495ms.... - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago
Toolchains: I use SDKMAN! For JDKs, NVM for Node.js, rustup for Rust, Bun, Go, Python, Deno, and the usual Linux build tools. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago
